[quote=Anonymous]I am a female attorney. I've purchased liquor or wine for male attorneys in my office a few times, either for Christmas or to say "thank you" for help/mentoring on some big project.  It didn't mean anything other than "Merry Christmas" or "Thank you."

I've also run into wives like OP a couple of times.  Both wives were SAH with kids and both times it was during/just after a trial that I second chaired for an attorney who was just a bit older than me.  Trial prep and trial are pretty intense and involve a LOT of hours.  I was spending a lot of time with their husbands.  More than they were, for sure.  I tried to be polite and friendly but the insecure was rolling off them. I definitely would NOT want to hang out with them and their DHs on the weekend.  There were three reasons for this: 1) It would be awkward dealing with their insecurities all weekends and getting the side-eye constantly. 2) I spend ENOUGH time with their husbands at work. I don't need to see more of the guy.  3) I have a husband. I'd like to spend some time with my husband on the weekend, thanks very much.

Chill, OP.  If you have a good relationship with your husband, you don't have anything to worry about. If you don't have a good relationship with your husband, worry about that, instead of worrying about his female co-workers. [/quote]
